She awakened in a dark cave. She didn’t know how she got there or where she had been before. All her memories of other times and places vanished. All she knew was this.
Her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness surrounding her like a protective blanket, like a mother’s embrace, and she began to take them in. The humid air had a particular stench to it that she couldn’t quite place. The walls were wet with moisture and seemed somehow alive.
As she explored the cave she stumbled and tried to catch herself by placing a hand on the wall. She saved herself from falling, but when she took her hand from the wall, she realized what that stench was.
Surrounding her on all sides was decaying flesh. It covered the walls, the floor, the ceiling, and she was trapped with no way out.
_____________________________________________________________________
I feel like am trapped with no way out. I feel surrounded by my own death. I feel lost. I don't know which way to go. I thought I had this figured out, but it keeps coming back to haunt me.
I also think I may be sabotaging my relationship with Brandon. For the past few days I have been utterly miserable. I haven't told him anything, and now I am angry with myself and him that I am this miserable. It's not his fault; he doesn't know anything, but I still feel he is partly to blame... because he did upset me, but I didn't tell him that he upset me.
I guess I'll just have to find some way out of the cave.
